Great capture. I like the lines on the flower which would have made a great shot on it's own. The grasshopper is a bonus.

The pesentation of the flower is very nice, but the grasshopper definitely takes to the next level. Love how he is just peering over the edge of the petal. Wonderful image! :toast:

The setting of this image is so lovely and peaceful. The light and dark of the flower really adds to the overall feel.

My first thought was peek-a-boo. I really like how the petals look so soft and then the grasshopper is so sharp in contrast. Great job.
